Active Training

Starting in the Active Soccer Hub at the sports centre, day one the focus is on learning about our ethos, implementing the services and best practice.

Next, the training gets ‘hands on’ – you will go out with our coaches and assist with sessions both in schools and at the Active Soccer Sports Centre.

By day three, the new franchisee will be leading sessions under the watchful eye of an Active Soccer Business Mentor. Back in the franchisee’s territory, Active Soccer will accompany new franchisees for their first two days. Training accommodation is included.

Daily Life of an Active Soccer Franchisee

Most day’s during term time our franchisees are out delivering coaching sessions. Sessions can last from one-five hours.

Additional income for the business can be generated through the successful delivery of active soccer holiday schemes, birthday parties and use of the active soccer branded inflatables for special events.

Once sessions are complete, franchisees carry out local marketing and capitalise on the prominence of their Active Soccer van.

General marketing combines online activity (website and social media) and traditional flyers, poster and banners being distributed.
